I'd guess related to the Internet interference reportedly happening within Cameroon, CAMNET (#AS15964) leaking #BGP routes for 4.0.0.0/8 and 8.0.0.0/8, e.g.,

Bogus #BGP routes that were little noticed. The origin ASN appears to have been a typo for #AS327885 (Viettel Tanzania), perhaps in a failed attempt at a government directed shutdown?

I've setup about 25 new #BGP sessions with about as many different varied providers over the past couple of weeks (and counting) The number of times a session came up on the first try I can count on one hand and have digits left over.
A typo, forgetting to "commit", or similar mistakes are surprisingly, to me anyway, common these days. They seem more common than when I remember…

Q1: do you set hostname on your #BGP routers and send it to peers

This might win the the most unusual #BGP image in a paper award.

Hard to annotate this image that won't just confuse further.  Maybe try yourself? https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.14467

The CAMTEL #BGP announcements for IP4 prefixes 4/8 and 8/8 are gone.
One Internet problem solved, 999,999 to go.
